[QUOTE="hombre, post: 158645, member: 18845"] Before TRT my sensitive E2 was [B]8-12[/B] (regular E2 test: undetectable E2, <5) With TRT, whether it's 22mg x 3 x week, 20mg x 3 x week or 18mg x 3 x week, my E2 was at (sky-rocketed) [B]40-49[/B]. Gave me [B]back acne and chest acne[/B]. And libido (main reason for starting TRT) was not much there (better than before TRT, but not like 2 weeks into TRT). So we decided to add AI to drop it slightly (it dropped to 20) Arimidex / Anastrozole: 0.125mg x 2 x week, or 0.125mg x 3 x week, my E2 drops to [B]20[/B] (in both cases), back acne is still there (just tiny), my skin before TRT (chest / back) was always very clean BTW. [I][COLOR=rgb(0, 168, 133)][B]Not sure if my Test Cyp dose should be even lower (to avoid AI, dr. Saya said to bring my E2 to mid range without using AI my Test Cyp dose might become too low to maintain normal Total Test)[/B][/COLOR][/I] I understand that lipids get messed up by low E2 (according to studies) not by AI itself ? But my lipids were fine even with E2 = [B]8[/B] (before TRT) or E2 = [B]49[/B] (during TRT), the reason also I was giving TRT a try was to raise my E2, not Total Test (libido, bones etc) [/QUOTE]
